Keeping up to date

Hello Science 4... please note that there is a new tab that links to all the journal topics that need to be done... but to be very honest, you should be able to get the topic while in class or very often by checking the slideshows.

 It might be a good idea to :

• do journals sooner that later while the topics are fresh in your minds
• take a look at old slideshows as a study aid. 

 About half the class has not done the facile learning assignment for materials... what's up? 

We're working with the materials unit and we'll be using helmets as an example of how materials are put together to perform a function. Below is a video that explains a few things about concussions (which is related to the topic of helmets)... we'll probably see it in class today (Oct.15th), here's the video below...
 

New unit on deck!

Hi Science IV,

As the option unit draws to a close, we should announce where we are going.  The next unit as described in your course outline will be about materials.  We will look at the properties of those materials and the forces applied to technical objects around us.  The next few weeks are all about engineering so put on your hard hats and rev your engines.

Your facile learning assignment is to do the following topics and the quizzes at the end.  You will be given marks for completing the quizzes and scoring well. The deadline for completion of this assignment is Tuesday, November 9th @1pm.

Facile Learning - Lesson 8 - Engineering

• Topic 1 - materials (part 1)
• Topic 2 - materials (part 2)
